I still remember the time when my friend asked me during the first month of my pregnancy, what do I want for a child, a BOY or a GIRL? To be honest the first thought that come to mind was a girl... mind you I don't have anything against a boy, I guess I just want girls because first and foremost I am a girl, I know what girls wants and acts... I also want to dress up baby girls... all those cute and sexy pretty little dresses where I can see my baby wearing but not me... all my girlie frustrations ( wearing tubes and the like..he.he.) applied to my beautiful, sexy baby girl... I would picture my baby girl looking like and dressing like a barbie doll... but waahha... fortune and God had spoken... I had a baby boy... the first time I saw him ( I didn't know before I gave birth the gender of my baby because I never had an ultrasound during my pregnancy ) I fell hook line and sinker in love with him... All my wantings for a baby girl was blown with the wind... I realize I could never asked God for more... All I ever though was thank God, he gave me a baby boy who is very healthy and handsome. I was contented. Though when I saw baby girls playing in the part, I still long to dress them up, now I contented myself in making sure my baby is healthy and making him more handsome... and a gentleboy..man.

My husband wanted a boy for the first one. I still remember he was pretty sure the baby was a boy, he even prepared boy's name for tbe baby. But we have a girl!! For me, I just want a healthy baby and we got one !!

I WANT A GIRL!!! i have 2 very wonderful boys and honestly, the 2nd one was supposed to be a girl...i'm getting scared because my sister is now pregnant with her 2nd boy and we thought that was going to be a girl...i might need further explinations why i get freaked out... my mother wanted a boy so badly, that she ended up having 3 girls. we think because my mother had all girls we might be destined for all boys. its just a little thing we think about. although we'll never know until i have another one and that won't be until we can get back on our feet and i can lose some weight to keep me safe. but i really want my girl...there are too many men in this house...

I think God knows best. I have two boys. I would have loved to have a girl but she wasn't in the plan. Never know I guess we could adopt one. Right now were too poor!

What i wanted was a boy as my first baby. And so i prayed for it. When i got pregnant, i had this strong feeling that it will be a baby boy. Still, i prayed that i am right, God would give me a baby boy. At seven months, God revealed to me, indeed he gave me a boy... Now i'm praying that He will give me a girl the next time i become pregnant. =
